The Shortening of the Way - Golem

A war of houses shook the world

Enmity, inexorable, like the desert’s heart

A hunted people, snared by destiny

Waiting for their saviour, the eagle above

Devilish treachery, the father failed

Mother and son, from certain death saved

The desert’s power, a mighty ally

In sietch communities, their new home built

With the voice from the outer world

He is an island of justice

The spice of spices, changing consciousness

Prophecies and legends, the sleeper awakes

The reverend mother, the water of life

Riding Shai-hulud, the crysknife at hand

With the forthcoming of the unknown

He becomes the base

Bridging time and space by the inner powers

Strengthen the body, perfecting the mind

The illuminating poison, the deadly challenge

Where so many tried, only he survived

Concepts of progress, blindness and prescience, silence…

The eyes of ibad, sihaya to come

Bring the jihad, kanly fulfilled

Out of oblivion, a new order brought

A delivering battle, for mankind to bloom

May he cleanse the world

As a pillar of the universe

He is the giver of water

His reign, a gate into future
